I am considering putting ground controls on my 02 civic and I was wondering what kind of aftermarket struts would be a good choice,I want good ride quality,I am not as concerned about handling,but I also want to be able to SLAM the car if i want to,I dont want somthing that will limit me.So what would be a good choice for this application.Any input is appricated.Thanks

Ok,that faq is OK, but it doesnt tell me what I need for my specific application,I wanted to know which one of those will go the lowest while riding the best.Thanks

Of course it doesn't tell you what you need for your specific application because ther is NO SPECIFIC PART FOR YOUR APPLICATION! All of them will go low, but you have to decide which ones will work the best. If you are going to choose one, choose an adjustable one, i.e. KYB AGX, Koni Yellow, or Tokico D-spec (if you can get them by themselves). I personaly would go with Koni yellow, but man...you have to decide.

All I meant was that it didnt say which of them would go the lowest.

Because they aren't meant to go the lowest, they are meant to hold the car up and to turn well. I told you what I recommended, but anything too low will put too much stress on the shocks, unless you get them shortened and revalved.

How about with Tanabe DF210 lowering springs of 1.8" all around? I was thinking of just getting the front struts since most of the problems accures there more than the rear. What would you recommend?

Well, Konis are designed to work equally well at any height with in their stroke range.... However! If you bottom them out you will destroy them. So your major limiting factor here isnt if the shock can handlle being so low, but rather if you have enough suspension travle to keep the shocks from bottoming out.

I decided to go with a set of B&Gs I ordered them today, Got them for $857 shipped brand new,So I think in the long run these will just be better cost wise.

Its right there on their web site,A friend of mine told me about them, he has ordered from them a couple of times before and had nothing but good things to say about them,and so far my experience with them has been very good.
